Frisco Silicone Dog & Cat Food Mat

My cat loves to spill water everywhere. We have had such a hard time trying to find a water dish that he can't drag across the room and spill his water all over. The dog's water dish works sometimes but once the dog drinks from it the cat refuses to....So I got this hoping that it would stop the water dish from travelling across the floor, however, the whole mat now travels across the floor...But it contains the spilled water a little bit. So bottom line, if your cat (or dog) is not a pest and doesn't like to spill his water everywhere and then stare at it like he's done something to be proud of then this is a good mat for you!

I love that silicone is a safe and easily washable material. My cat has some trouble eating from an injury when she was a stray that damaged her jaw and took half her teeth, so sometimes she prefers to eat off the floor. I got this so I wouldn't have kibble in my carpet. She happily eats off this. It's bigger than I expected, so it's a little hard to wash in my bathroom sink. The size makes sense though and is about placemat sized. When I touch it, it feels like the kind of silicone texture that likes to collect lint, but I haven't noticed it doing that. That might also help it grip things better, which is a good thing. The blue is also a pretty color.

This is a good quality mat. It has ribbed type texture to it that keeps my cat's food dishes from sliding around. My cat tends to get water out on the mat when she drinks which left water stains on her previous mat. This one is silicone so the water just wipes right up and does not discolor that mat which I am very happy about. It also has I nice lip all the way around to contain any spills. It is reasonably priced and I would definitely recommend it.

This mat works beautifully to contain the water my cats seem incapable of keeping in their bowls. I bought one for each of their water bowls (as they are scattered through the house). There's a small lip around the edge as well, so even though my cats aren't messy enough to fully test its capabilities, it could contain larger spills as well I suspect. The neutral color/design means it doesn't look out of place in the sunroom, the mudroom, or the master bath.

I have two kittens that share a food and water dish, so this silicone mat is a perfect size. It should be able to accommodate them perfectly over time, even as they get to full size. The lipped edges ensure that food and water don't leave the mat itself. The silicone is super easy to clean and transport to other spaces.

I had purchased a less expensive mat for my new cats' food bowls to sit on. Then I needed to purchase lids for wet food cans and found silicone lids and decided I should get a silicone mat for the wet food. Silicone is a much more environmental choice. I'll donate the other mat to a rescue org.

This is a great mat. Originally I had purchased a cloth mat and it got way too dirty. This mat is easy to wipe off and clean. It holds my cats food bowl and her water fountain perfectly.

There are a lot of silicon mat solutions out there; I'm not sure how someone is supposed to really make an informed decision about this. I can't even remember why we went with this one in the first place. Maybe it was on sale? In any case, it's great and we have no regrets with it. Cat does occasionally drop water or push kibble out of the dish and it lands on the mat just fine. If you're looking for a reviewer to just tell you what to buy, you can't go wrong with this mat.

I loved the price for this item however, we used it for ONE meal. My puppy got it and literally ripped it to shreds. I’m sad about it but will not be purchasing it again because it’s such soft material.

I read a lot of food mat reviews before buying this one. Bought this to help keep my puppy's feeding area clean. Her dishes are in the dining room, which is carpeted. She would slosh water over the edge of her bowl, or we'd accidentally kick her bowl, soaking the carpet. This mat has exceeded my expectations. If the mat gets bent or folded it doesn't hold that shape - it snaps right back into place. It's easy to wash and dry. It's got an edge that holds water and kibble when spilled. And it's never had a chemical smell. Bought this in June and it still looks brand new 5 months later.
